YAYASAN Khazanah has announced three higher education scholarship programmes to develop human capital.

They are the Khazanah Merdeka Scholarship Programme, Yayasan Khazanah Watan Scholarship Programme and Yayasan Khazanah Asia Scholarship Programme.

The scholarships are open to outstanding scholars who plan to pursue their undergraduate or postgraduate studies in premier universities in Malaysia or abroad.

The recent launch also saw the signing of a collaborative agreement for the Khazanah Merdeka Scholarship Programme between Yayasan Khazanah and the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies (OCIS).

The agreement was signed by Yayasan Khazanah board of trustees member and Khazanah Nasional managing director Datuk Azman Mokhtar and OCIS director Dr Farhan Ahmad Nizami. The signing was witnessed by Higher Education Minister Datuk Mustapa Mohamed.

Mustapa, who is also Yayasan Khazanah chairman, said scholarship initiatives aimed to produce a new generation of Malaysians who would be able to lead, innovate and compete in the global economy.

Azman said the programmes would offer equal opportunities for higher education to deserving Malaysians and international students, as well as promote Malaysian universities.

Dr Farhan Ahmad Nizami said OCIS would help pave the way for deserving scholars to continue their postgraduate education at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge.
